fenix001 [56]

Tina should make 31 inch tall model to replicate 155 feet tall monument.

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem can be solved by direct unitary methods easily-

Firstly, Scale is the ratio of the dimension of the original substance to the dimension of a model

Scale= original dimension/ model dimension

Model is the miniaturised representation of a substance.

The monument is 155 feet tall

Tina replicates it with a scale 1inch: 5 feet

Thus, this means that Tina would need 155*1/5 = 31 inch tall model to replicate the complete length of the monument.

Hence Tina needs to make 31-inch tall model.

A train leaves San Diego at 1:00 pm. A second train leaves the same city in the same direction at 3:00 pm. The second train trav
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

The speed of the first train is 45 mph and the speed of the second train is 75 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the speed of the first train in mph. Since the second train, is 30 mph faster then the first, therefore the speed of the second train is (x + 30).

The first train leaves at 1:00 pm, therefore at 6:00 pm, the time taken is 5 hours. Therefore the distance covered by the first train at 6:00 pm = x mph * 5 hours = 5x miles

The second train leaves at 3:00 pm, therefore at 6:00 pm, the time taken is 3 hours. Therefore the distance covered by the second train at 6:00 pm = (x + 30) mph * 3 hours = (3x + 90) miles

Since the second train overtakes the first at 6:00 pm, hence:

3x + 90 = 5x

2x = 90

x = 45

Therefore the speed of the first train is 45 mph and the speed of the second train is 75 mph (45 mph + 30 mph).
